Question
What are the treatment methods for pediatric infectious mononucleosis? Please provide medical advice.
Answer
For children, the most severe complications include viral nephritis, viral myocarditis, and interstitial pneumonia, which are relatively common complications. For EBV infection, there is no ideal antiviral medication at present. Pediatricians often use “gamma globulin” to boost immunity, thereby eliminating the virus through the immune system. After the disease, immunity can last for 30 years, as the disease cycle is at least 14 days, and can last up to 3 months or more. Therefore, there may still be persistent fever in the current stage.
